Bargain hunters have been left baffled by a bizarre metal gadget that 'looks like an old-fashioned torture device' that was spotted in a Sydney Op Shop.
Shopper Amy, from Manly, posted a picture of the metal ornament to Facebook - asking if anyone knows what it is.
She showed a clip of device - which has scissor-like handles - moving and showing a serrated edge.
'I saw this in the op shop today and am trying to work out what it's for because it looks a torture device hahaha. Anyone know?' she wrote to Facebook group I Love To Op Shop.
Dozens of people were quick to comment, suggesting it could be a cigar cutter with others suggesting it could be a more risqué device like a sex toy.
However, others rightly revealed it was an egg cutter, which is used to chop the top off from hard boiled eggs.
'I thought it might be for cutting the end off a cigar,' said one.
'It is a cigar end cutter,' added another.
'Bottle opener for people with arthritis maybe?' commented a third.
Many thought it was for cutting - with another writing: 'I think it’s a thread/yarn cutter - travelling crocheters and knitters use them where they can’t take scissors eg on a flight!'
'Its a pimple popper,' commented another.
'It's for champagne bottles,' added a third.
Others commented it was for 'opening bottles' while others said it was a 'sex toy'.
It's an egg shell cutter
To cut a boiled egg neatly when table manners where important
It cuts the top off a boiled egg. We had one when I was a child.
